BYD Hanrong is a safety benchmark for new energy vehicles, and its strength cannot be underestimated.

On June 9th, China Automotive Technology Research and Test Center released a batch of evaluation results of C-IASI vehicles, among which BYD Han obtained G (excellent) rating certification in the tests of occupant safety index, outsider safety index and vehicle auxiliary safety index, which set three core safety indexes and the best performance of C-IASI new energy cars, and its safety strength was far ahead, which refreshed the market’s perception of safety quality again.

When it comes to C-IASI crash test, many people will be branded as "harsh". Because it refers to the test standards and operation methods of the American Highway Safety Insurance Association (IIHS), and constantly adjusts and improves according to the domestic automobile market, it has formed a mature collision test system. From the "China Insurance Automobile Safety Index Regulations (2020 Edition)" issued by C-IASI this year, we can see that the testing standards are stricter and more standardized, and the difficulty of getting a G in the evaluation has soared.

As the first vehicle to participate in the test, BYD Han has integrated the highest safety standards into the vehicle genes at the beginning of research and development, and is committed to bringing users all-round safety protection without dead ends. In the frontal 25% offset collision, side collision, roof strength, seat/headrest, G rating was obtained, and the excellent collision results came from excellent strength. Among the seven test items of C-IASI, the frontal 25% offset collision test is the most difficult one, and Han’s achievement is really worthy of praise.

It is precisely because in the test results previously published by C-IASI, more than 30 models failed to get the G rating in this project, and Han’s body was designed on this basis. The front cabin fully absorbed energy, and the passenger cabin was fully supported. During the collision, the energy was gradually released, and the collision deceleration was controlled while absorbing energy to reduce the impact on the passenger cabin. Fully combining the material characteristics, advanced high-strength steel with high ductility is selected for the main energy absorption area and collapse area, and ultra-high-strength steel and thermoformed steel with tensile strength exceeding 1300MPa are selected for the supporting area, among which 43 thermoformed steel materials are used, with a total usage of 97kg, ranking first among independent brands in China.

In addition, when a frontal 25% offset collision occurs, the vehicle will often rotate due to the collision inertia, and the front passengers will have the risk of hitting the car body structure. Han’s front pre-tightening force-limiting seat belt is restrained in place, and the front airbag and side air curtain are all quickly and completely opened, which plays a better role in restraining the body and protecting the drivers and passengers; The driver’s seat knee equipped by Han can protect the safety of the passenger’s knee in the event of collision, isolate the direct collision between the knee and the panel, buffer the displacement inertia of the knee due to the impact, and reduce the injury to the knee.

In addition to these, the safety index of drivers and laymen is also very bright. We can see from the table that the head test scored 24 points, and Han scored 13.642 points; The leg shape test scored a perfect score of 6, and Han got a perfect score. Finally, the G grade score was obtained with a scoring rate of 65%.

From the safety point of view, BYD Han does have strong safety performance. As a China brand, BYD also uses its own car-making strength to prove the rise of domestic cars. In the future, BYD will also adhere to the concept of building cars safely, and constantly provide consumers with safer and higher-quality models to protect consumers’ travel.
